“Dear PoPville,
I was wondering if anyone wrote in about the reports of an active shooter or person with a gun on the green line last night. It took place between L’Enfant and Waterfront on a train heading towards Branch Ave around 10pm.
I was on the train and saw everyone running towards the other cars as someone shouted someone had a gun. I ran too and lost my shoes and a book I was reading in the process. It was chaotic. Police arrived on the scene as I exited the station and got into a lyft but I haven’t seen anything in the news about it. Just wondering if everyone is safe and whether the threat was real.”
Ed. Note: I did not receive any other reports – did anyone else happen to be on this train?

We’re about a month out from summer. That means you’ve still got time for spring cleaning!
Lexi Grant, an operations manager at Well-Paid Maids, shared her go-to spring cleaning tips with WTOP News. Step one? Declutter. Get rid of items you don’t use, find space for items that need a home and organize those areas.
Then, it’s time to dust. Lexi starts with high-touch surface areas (think: refrigerator, dishwasher, counters, microwave). One area she sees often neglected is the bedroom — and it makes sense. Heavy furniture is difficult to move around, but it’s important to really get in there so dust doesn’t affect your sleep.
